Installation Guide
• Always assume an overhead line can cause serious injury or death. Note that electric power lines and phone
lines look alike.
• Always wear the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for the task, including but not limited to
rubber boots, rubber gloves, hard hat, harness and lanyard, etc.
• Always use a ladder made of a non-conductive material, such as wood or fiberglass. Do not use a metal ladder.
• Always work under favorable conditions. Do not work on wet or windy days.
• If the base station or antenna begins to drop, step away immediately and allow it to fall. The base station,
cables, metal guy wires and pole (in the case of pole mount installations) are all excellent conductors. Any
contact between these components and an electrical power line will complete an electrical path through the
base station/antenna and the installer.
• If any part of the base station or an antenna comes in contact with an electrical power line, contact the local
power utility. Do not attempt to touch or remove the component.
